Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9204527A1] A method for determining the rotational speed of a drill bit (16) arranged at one end of a rotating drill string (20). According to the method, the axial acceleration at one point on the drill string is measured, this measurement is processed to determine the acceleration's energy content, and a correction is applied to this energy value in order to determine the rotational speed.
